,True
False - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔False
Why are plant distributions an excellent measure of an area's climate
conditions? (click all that apply)
unlike animals, plants are purely endemic, that is, they can only grow
where they evolved and have not been moved or relocated by humans
plants are sensitive to average soil moistures, as well as dependent of
regular outlier events, for example seasonal monsoons
plants are sensitive to minimum soil and atmospheric temperatures
many endemic plants have a limited range of precipitation, temperature,
wind, and moisture conditions to which they are adapted, therefore limiting
their growth in areas that reflect these climatic conditions long-term.

A higher incident angle of sunlight causes that sunlight to a) travel a longer
distance through the atmosphere, b) be spread out over a larger surface
area, and c) be reflected more readily at the top of the atmosphere and the
Earth's surface. Which of these factors contribute to a DECREASE in
atmospheric absorption of energy locally? (click all that apply)
travelling a longer distance through the atmosphere
being spread out across a larger surface area
